The Mansion From The BBC’s ‘Pride And Prejudice’ Is For Sale, So You Too Can Be Elizabeth Bennett

But it costs a little more than ten-thousand-a-year!

The English manor where we’ve staged a great many of our fantasy weddings to a cravat-sporting Colin Firth-as-Mr Darcy is for sale, according to Country Life.

The seven-bedroom, 9,600-square-feet mansion, luckily named Luckington Court, sits on 156 acres of land, and also comes with five separate cottages, stables, and some ‘modern farm buildings’. Nestled in the lush area around Badminton, a village near Gloucestershire, the 18th-century estate has its own personal gardens, forests and a little lazy river running nearby.

The house featured in the 1995 adaption of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice as the home of the Bennett family, meaning that several long-winded conversations about money, marriage and eloping were probably had in there.

And, if you needed another little historical incentive, the house was also once owned by King Harold of England in 1066.

All that history (and some Colin Firth-related bragging rights) will put you back around $15.68 million AUD. A fair price, if you ask us.
